Quote: Tim Kizziar
“Our greatest fear as individuals and as a church should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that dont matter.”
- What kind of successes don’t matter? Personally? And in work/ministry?
- What does matter?
Today is NOT about me.
“Our greatest fear as individuals and as a church should not be of failure but of succeeding at things in life that dont matter.”
Personally-
Doesn’t matter: new clothes, status, high paying job, notoriety
What matters: relationships…with my husband, with family, friendships, and reaching out to outsiders
In Ministry-
Doesn’t matter: what color the carpet was, whether the pulpit was wood or plastic or non-existent, whether the youth room was the coolest or if the sound system was cutting edge.
What matters: relationships…with the Father, with Christ followers, with Christ on-lookers
